Do Work Son!
This was a Big Week for me.
Wednesday – I worked with some College Students to frame a bedroom room in house ravaged by Hurricane Ike in Galveston, Tx.
Friday – I hung a Chandelier over our tub that we’ve been wanting to get and hang for over a year. I’m not really an “electrical” guy, but…I figured it out…without getting shot across the room.
Saturday – Jeanne and I built a Headboard from scratch that we’ve been wanting a to build for over a year. It took us about 4 hours of work, but it saved us about $800!
Why was this week so BIG?
Because I actually DID WORK with my hands. To most folks, it’s not a big deal, but for someone who can sit 8 hours in front of a laptop and call that “work“, it is very important for me to get callouses, to lift heavy things, to be sore, and to use a pneumatic nailer from time to time.
It’s good to WORK. It’s good to BUILD. It’s good to actually be TIRED from the right things.
I know you already know this…but this week, I needed to be reminded.
Your Turn :: What are you WORKing on right now?
